This is one of those threads that gets bumped up from years ago and you can't remember whether you already voted, and you don't have time to scroll back through about 100 posts to see if you did, but in case I didn't (or mistakenly voted for something else) then I still say Status Quo's Dog of Two Heads through to Rockin' all Over the World (7 albums I think) is the best run I ever heard, not a bad track/song to be found anywhere.

I haven't looked through the entire thread, so this may already have been said, but the Pink Floyd body of work over seven years '73 - '79 would take some beating - Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and The Wall. Magnificent.

I'd have liked to suggest the Pink Floyd sequence of Meddle, The Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here, but as others have noted Obscured by Clouds breaks this one up. I haven't heard Animals so I can't quite make a classic PF threesome.

However, I will suggest the first three Buckingham/Nicks Fleetwood Mac albums:

Fleetwood Mac (self titled), Rumours, Tusk

I think those three make a fine set.

Showing an often overlooked Southern Rock band some love, everyone knows Skynyrd, the Alllman Brothers but hardly anyone gives a second thought to the Atlanta Rhythm Section.

Third Annual Pipe Dream
Dog Days
Red Tape
A Rock and Roll Alternative
Champagne Jam

Would love to add Quinella but 3 albums come between it and their prime early material. Underdog was a decent record but wasn't quite up to my expectations from ARS although the cover of Spooky is really good.

I'm getting rather sad when I see people calling Obscured a bad album but that's just me
